Re: AVG 8?????

said by Gemstone See Profile :

... Does this mean that the virus definition updates for AVG 7.5 will no longer be available??... Does this force all AVG Free 7.5 users to upgrade to AVG 8??...
As shown in bold at the top of the nag screen, it most likely means that updates for 7.5 won't be available after May 31st.

So yes, at some point you'll have no choice but to "upgrade" to AVG 8.

But they're not really "forcing" you to do anything...until May 31st, that is. (In the mean time, hit "Upgrade later", and it will go away for a while).

On the other hand, I suppose they'll be "forcing" me to use a different AV program at that time.

I'm really not too happy about this change. (For further details, see some of the links lilhurricane See Profile provided).
